A shy young man who has less spine than a scarecrow, yet kind and understanding. He first fell in love with [Misaki Takazaki](https://anilist.co/character/121845) after lending her half his eraser and seeing her smile. Yukari however, is forced to be engaged with [Sanada Ririna](https://anilist.co/character/121847) by the government marriage policy after confessing to [Misaki Takazaki](https://anilist.co/character/121845).

In a world where the government assigns you a marriage partner once you turn sixteen, Yukari Nejima, a below average teen, confesses to his childhood crush Misaki Takasaki on the eve of his sixteenth birthday… only to find out that he has been assigned to Ririna Sanada instead.
 
Would you rather choose the girl you have always loved, or the girl you met because you were told she was your partner? Which one is love? Which one is a lie? There is only one way to find out!

Yukari is dull. He doesn’t even stand out enough to be bullied—he’s just a generally lower-middle-class kid. One day, on the eve of his sixteenth birthday, he confesses to his childhood crush Misaki Takasaki. There’s just one problem: He was 15, few minutes away from receiving his government-assigned marriage partner. He normally wouldn’t have the courage to defy the law, but his assigned wife Ririna still believes in love, and won’t stop goading him into confessing his feelings!
